Titan Souls Combines Two Fan Favorites Into One

The music in this games takes ques from the Dark Souls series where the music will only really play when you engage in a boss fight. The music on the game was composed by David Fenn. Fenn has composed a few other indie, but this is the first work that I have heard from him. I will be talking about two songs that appear on the album that took me by surprise when I entered the bosses area.
The first song that I will be talking about is one of the first three bosses that you have to fight and it is titled "Brainfreeze". The boss's name is also Brainfreeze and it is a giant brain that is encased in ice that slides around the room and will some times tries to jump up and squish you. The goal of the fight is to trick the brain into sliding over a button in the middle of the area that starts a fire and you must shot arrow through the fire and into the ice cube to melt it and expose the brain. Once defrosted the brain will become more aggressive, but if you hit it with the arrow it will be defeated. The music in the fight is very almost tribal sounding with the different kinds of percussion instruments and simple sounding string instruments. The music fits the mood of the boss because at first it isn't that intense, but as soon as you melt the ice the intensity doubles.
The other song I will be talking about plays during the boss Rol-Qayin, a living molten boulder, and the title is "Roller". The boss fight is honestly one of the simplest in the game where all you have to do is shot the arrow right in its eye while it is rolling around chasing you. The song starts out with the ripping electric guitar notes then followed by an acoustic guitar. I beat the boss before the song repeated. This song completely caught me off guard because of the electric guitar a great surprise.
